Message from your Six Month Old Spiritually Adopted Baby
“I’m sitting up straight now!” Thank you for your prayers! I’m 6 months old now. I just opened my eyes - Before today they were sealed shut for protection. I wonder what you look like. I can hear sounds, too! It’s great to have someone praying for me.
Love,
your spiritually adopted baby
We are now at the end of the second trimester! Your spiritually adopted baby now weighs almost two pounds. She sits up straight now to accommodate her internal organs which have moved into their final place in her little body. Babies born prematurely at this time have a very good chance of surviving. Thank you for your prayers! Your spiritually adopted baby is developing quite beautifully now. Her weight is approaching 2 pounds. She sits up straight now to accommodate her internal organs which have moved into their final place in her little body. Babies born prematurely at this time have a very good chance of surviving. The medical advances in caring for extremely small newborn infants are extraordinary indeed. Please don’t forget to pray for your baby. Abortion is legal through all nine months and her mom might still feel pressure to abort.
